The proposal will strengthen the townscape creating an eight storey office building with shops and restaurants at ground level, and terraced housing at the rear. It replaces an outdated 1960s tower and is highly sustainable, adopting energy-efficient measures such as a green roof, photovoltaic panels, roof terraces, tree planting and the use of rainwater harvested from the roof. Nestling behind the office building, a row of seven townhouses reinstates the line of the historic mews and providing a new landscaped street.
